Calibrating high-precision Faraday rotation measurements for LOFAR and the next generation of low-frequency radio telescopes

Faraday rotation measurements using the current and next generation of low-frequency radio telescopes will provide a powerful probe of astronomical magnetic fields. However, achieving the full potential of these measurements requires accurate removal of the time-variable ionospheric Faraday rotation...
